Wearing and eating the green -

 

 Somewhat of a low key St. Patrick's Day here.

Fighting one's way to the bar in the American version of an Irish pub

is hard enough on a regular day, doing it this evening would likely be an act

of futility . . . . . . especially as it will be raining and any outdoor seating

 for the overflow of patrons unpleasant. 

Instead, I made my usual pistachio muffins. They are also perfect

to bake for Easter.

where I shared my version before and readers tried and liked.

Sending you good wishes for a fun St. Patrick's Day.

I'm off to don a greenish sweater and my only emeralds. They are set in a

lovely pair of silver earrings, crafted by an English jeweler in my brother's

 French village, far from Ireland, a country we truly love and hope

 to visit again  . . . . .  and where Bob will continue the ancestry search for

 his paternal grandfather's family from County Kerry.
